[Lluis Ripoll]

Opera lovers will never forget your excellent performance with Alastair, as Leporello, Don Giovanni and Commendatore!

Chupito in “El Julivert Meu” help the good voices!

>>> The National Marionette Theatre of the Czech Republic regularly performs Mozart's "Don Giovanni," conducted by a puppet of Mozart himself.  I had not planned on photographing it, and there was a pictorial sign that could have been interpreted as either "no cameras with flash," or "no cameras, period."  I noticed several people taking photos with their cellphones, despite another sign that seemed to say "no cellphones." But the ushers didn't stop them. So I figured, if they can, I can. So I discretely took pictures during the second act.  All I had was my 40mm equivalent lens, so I had to crop drastically, and someone's head obstructed a bit of my view on the right. I pressed the shutter button anyway.   Here's a few of the best shots.
